The Federal Medical Debt Rule Is Vacated

In January 2025, the Federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) issued a new Rule aimed at eliminating medical debt from consumer credit reports. The Rule banned credit reporting agencies from including medical debt information in consumer reports when provided to creditors for making credit determinations, and prevented creditors from considering medical debt information when making credit decisions. The CFPB justified the Rule by arguing that medical debt is often unplanned, can result from emergencies, and may not reflect a person’s overall financial responsibility.

The Rule faced a legal challenge from two trade associations, the Cornerstone Credit Union League and the Consumer Data Industry Association, which argued that the CFPB had exceeded its authority when developing the Rule.
